Why are cars killing more pedestrians?
What makes you ask sure that punishment would actually serve as an effective deterrent?

Well, if we take a license away from anyone who texts and drives there will be less unfit drivers on the road. It's likely not enough but heavy penalties for texting when driving would help even if it doesn't deter anyone until the get caught.
